my 750 ti works. nouveau can’t increase the clock speed to the operating clock on boot, on boot the display on that card shows random data with colorful pixels, and nvtop does not see it either, but it works.

wait, are they really using it?

IT basically constructs several virus exe files during runtime FROM THE BYTECODE SECTION !!

what kind of viruses? what do they do? did you notice anything objectively bad that they do? or something fishy other than creating executables?

These exe files are what does the activation. It also installs backdoors, and potential malware !!

could you provide a little more details on what kind of backdoors does it install? and what malware?

this could be a big deal, but you didn’t provide anything that could be verified.

unexpected lesson, but that umask in a subshell is very clever!

I mean with something easier than OBS, but which works on KDE or any other desktop. something like OnTopReplica on windows

isn’t it possible with some external utility? OBS can capture individual windows with pipewire, and it can render that to a new window, so it must be possible with something easier too

I have heard less about phone chargers failing catastrophically. They also handle much less power (except the fancy ones), and I haven’t seen a hot phone charger adapter yet, but plenty laptop chargers of which some were just very warm, and some so hot just on its outsides that it was uncomfortable to hold it in hand.

this is why I’m more worried about laptop chargers

I would assume that landfill laptop manufacturers are trying to minimize costs even harder on the charger.

but what timeframe do you mean with “anymore”? laptops made in this decade, or the last 10 years, or something else? there’s plenty of old laptops that fitinto OPs category.

I think 5W probably can’t be achieved, maybe with chromebook-like hardware, but I guess GPIO could be solved with a USB accessory

in my opinion the bigger problem is the fire hazard of an unsupervised charger. I have seen enough that runs super hot, and even if it doesn’t, I just can’t trust them.

but what will fix the fire hazard of the charger? how will you be able to keep it plugged in 24/7?

fdisk cannot convert the partition structure, but gdisk can, though you better have a full backup bedore attempting to do it

MBR can be converted to GPT. gdisk can do it, in fact if you run it for an MBR structured disk it will automatically do the conversion in memory, and you can check the results before writing it out. windows also has a tool for that.

It’s probably the MIT licensed rust reimplementation of coreutils and sudo-rs

KDE 7 is already on the horizon? 6 os still pre-release, isn’t it?

well I guess it cannot run medium sized AI models or something. but also, the question arises what is their price for a mid level phone

did you make these yourself? if not, could you cdo an ls -l /dev/mapper? it shows which name corresponds to which dm device

how did you add grub to the windows bootloader’s menu? I thought microsoft made this impossible, along with adding older windows versions

do you know that use device mapper? what kind of device is /dev/dm-1 ?

“dmsetup info” might help

did you check it /proc/cmdline if the params were taken into account? perhaps you edited the config but didn’t update the initramfs

that’s only the X11 “driver” for it. nouveau is built into the kernel, the way to “uninstall” it is to make it not get loaded, by blacklisting it

but this does not seem to be the problem
